A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
写作
Writing
Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

Writing is no answer but when you feel deeply there is little else to do.

Sometimes writing everyday is like pulling teeth, painful, but necessary.
有时候每天写作就像拔牙，很痛苦，但却是必要的。
There is no such thing as an "aspiring writer". You are a writer. Period.
没有所谓的“有抱负的作家”。你是个作家。时期。
Dreams are illustrations... from the book your soul is writing about you.
梦是插图…从书中你的灵魂在写你。
Writing and rewriting are a constant search for what it is one is saying.
写作和重写是对一个人所说内容的不断探索。
Most of the time I quote myself. It's not arrogance, it's a writer's job.
大多数时候我引用自己的话。这不是傲慢，这是作家的工作。
The writer must wade into life as into the sea, but only up to the navel.
作家必须涉入生活，如同涉入大海，但只能涉入肚脐。
My writing comes not from the happy moments, but from struggle and grief.

Research is formalized curiosity. It is poking and prying with a purpose.

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
A man, to be greatly good, must imagine intensely and comprehensively; he must put himself in the place of another and of many others; the pains and pleasures of his species must become his own.
一个人要想成为伟大的好人，就必须有强烈而全面的想象;他必须把自己放在别人和许多其他人的位置上;人类的痛苦和快乐必须成为人类自己的。
There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written.
没有道德或不道德的书。书要么写得好，要么写得不好。
Writing is thinking on paper.
写作就是在纸上思考。
It had been startling and disappointing to me to find out that story books had been written by people, that books were not natural wonders, coming of themselves like grass.
当我发现故事书是由人写的，书并不是自然奇观，而是像草一样自己生长出来的时候，我感到既震惊又失望。
I get a fine warm feeling when I'm doing well, but that pleasure is pretty much negated by the pain of getting started each day. Let's face it, writing is hell.
当我做得很好的时候，我有一种很好的温暖的感觉，但是这种快乐被每天开始的痛苦抵消了。让我们面对现实吧，写作是地狱。
Let us tenderly and kindly cherish, therefore, the means of knowledge. Let us dare to read, think, speak, and write.
因此，让我们温柔而仁慈地珍惜知识的手段。让我们敢于读、想、说、写。
